From the collection of Postmuseum
Painting is a 1905 paint by Carl Wilhelmson, held at Postmuseum.
The painting shows a busy scene in Stockholm with port workers, a postman, and travelers. It's interesting because it's a sketch for a bigger oil painting. The scene is festive, with people going about their daily business. The artist used this sketch to plan a larger work, and you can learn more about this style by looking at the technique of chiaroscuro.
Carl Wilhelm Wilhelmson (12 November 1866, Fiskebäckskil – 24 September 1928, Gothenburg) was a Swedish painter, graphic artist, amateur photographer and art teacher.
